Pictures disappearing [solved]

7 posts • viewed 64 times

I have a feeling that pictures are being removed from coins during some parts of the update process.

I have just processed a change request to this coin:

N#76858

There were two fields in the change request:

 

  1. The mint (accepted)
  2. A link to Colnect in the Comments field (not accepted)

 

I did a partial acceptance in the usual way but when I checked the coin page afterward, the coin no longer had pictures. I am 90% certain (but not 100% certain) that it had pictures before I accepted the change request.

Could we check on this please? And maybe restore the photographs if they are still on the system?

Not that this is definitive of what was there yesterday, but the Way Back Machine has a capture from 2016 with no pictures.  The NRI in 2016 was 97 (1 member) the same as today.

Thank you! Some times we have to be aware of that 10% uncertainty about things. :-) I think I probably remembered the Colnect picture and assumed I'd seen it on Numista. I appreciate your insightful way of checking it.

I'm happy to regard this matter as closed.

And from Google archives:  

 

Go to the change history, there you will see if it ever had pictures. There you can also download them and re-upload if they came from a legitimate source.

And thank you for that too!

This page had indeed no pictures. Last ones were generic images mentioning “No pictures available - Numista needs your help” but these were removed back on 2016 June 30th.
